Oval club race is underway, the second round started not long ago. Touring qualifying begins in a little over five hours.
Timmy Heiser's car was stolen from his hotel room a few hours ago. Sobottka offered up his 19T car, I dunno if Timmy's going to run it or build a new one.
As stated earlier, guys are limited to ONE class in the club race, both for on-road and oval.
Cyrul has been wrenching nonstop since he got here, he has had a small amount of track time, more with oval than sedan. I hear his oval cars were rocking.
I have pics of the Custom Works car, will post when I'm done with my Q runs.
Don't worry about the weird first lap times in the printout there, that was some sort of computer glitch but the final times are correct.
Tosolini (and all Yokomo drivers that I know of) are running the CGM car... and love it.
The Parma Alfa seems to be the "body of the moment" right now.

This is like the 3rd major race in the last 6 months that a competitor has had something like this happen to them. At the on road worlds it was engines, at Cleveland it was someone's car, and now at Snowbirds its someone's car. I hope the find who ever took it and stick a red hot poker in a very uncomfortable place. I know Timmy can get another car, but all the work he put into that chassis is gone now.

I think it was Mo Denton's motor that got up and walked away at Cleveland.

futureal, it would be real nice if you could get a few snaps of those pretty cgm's if possible.

Most guys leave their doors open, or have a lot of people going in and out of their rooms. Sadly, more people are closing their doors nowadays... and I can see why. I mean I probably have $10K worth of crap in here, with my computer and r/c stuff. And other guys have even more: boxes of batteries, tires, motors, etc.

That really sucks about Timmys car. I hope he can get back on track i'm sure theres plenty of peole to help him out. Very bad that someone would do something like that.
Good luck to all the Flat landers and Cheese heads, good to see everyone is running well in the club race.

Good Luck

Give SHane some time guys. Trust me when I tell you, it is not easy when you have to race, wrench and report all at the same time. I speak from experience. I'm sure it will be up sometime today.
